Pectic polysaccharide (alpha-1,5-arabinan)

Pectic polysaccharide (alpha-1,5-arabinan); Pectic polysaccharide; alpha-1,5-arabinan

The plant cell wall surrounds the plant cell as a complex network of polysaccharides classed as: cellulose, hemicelluloses and pectic polysaccharides and glycoproteins. Anchored to or embedded into plant cell wall are other polymers, like: lignin, suberin or cutin. Pectins are the major polysaccharides that build pectic matrix of plant primary cell walls.
